Lord Pundas, Earl Mulgrave, Mr. Nicholls, and Mr. Martin, M.P., bad inteetiVf#With yjscount Melbourne yesterday, THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY, JUNE 16, 1838. Lords year after year have refused to listen to the prayer of the Irish, and have given them up to the mercy of Exche quer processes, tithe proctors, and an armed police. They bare refused them franchises, lest the Established Church, which is an insult to them, should be weakened. They have insisted on binding the Irish, in order to keep them the secure prey of the established priesthood. They have called them aliens, and treated them as enemies. They have denounced their faith and their teachers, and have openly avowed that the Tory part of the Legislature is in hostility to them. They are not righteous rulers, but insulting tyrants, and like all tyrants they tremble when the people show their strength. One and all of them say, and their scribes i❑ the Press take up 'he same strain—" Oh, it is illegal—it is unconstitutional —it is very wrong in those Irish to collect in such num bers, and frighten u 3 reasonable Tory Lords." Illegal and unconstitutional, is it ! Then we ask by what means can the Irish get redress ? The Lords are irresponsible, and they hold their power independently of the people. Are the Irish to trust Lord LYNDHURST'S conscience, Lord WICKLOW'S sense of justice, Lord GLENGALL'S righteous ness, Lord FITZGERALD'S recollections of Clare, and the Duke of WELLINGTON'S love of military obedience— and are they, after so many years' disappointment, to take oo steps to help themselves ? Are they to lie down for ever to be trampled on by Tory lords and Protestant par sons ? The thousands of occupiers on whose produce the titheowners annually seize have no voice in the Legis- I iture. They are cut off from all share of the representa tion ; and if they are not to meet to inspire each other with confidence, and assert their rights in common, they are wretched slaves of the Tories and of the established priesthood. If their meetings be illegal and unconstitutional, about which, however, there are many doubts (for the fears of Tory Lords are not the law and the Constitution), the sooner they he made legal and constitutional the better. We do not say that they are legal, but that they are praiseworthy. First, to refuse the Irish all redress, to taunt them in insulting !anguage, and then to prohibit them meeting to express their feelings, is an odious tyranny which only cravens and men worthy to be slaves would submit to. The Irish are not cravens, and already the Tory Lords are terrified at the consequences of the wrong they have done. At the meeting at the Curragh of Kildare on last Sun lay, there were only, says the Pilot, between five and six thousand persons present. More were prevented from at tending by the late hour at which Divine service was con eluded. The spirit which animated them may be known by the following extracts from their resolutions : " That the present settlement of the tithe question, as explained in the speeches of both parties in the House of Commons, appears to be the result of a compromise between the Ministers of the Crown and the 'Tories. The Irish people are no parties to this compromise, and cannot be bound by it. " ResoliTedLThat the total extinction of the tithe system, in name and nature, in form and substance, can only give satisfaction to the people of Ireland. " Resolved --That the amount of tithes now claimed, is in many cases AO large, and in all cases so obnoxious, as to render it totally impossible for the occupiers to discharge it ; and that in any temporary settlement of the question, an exemption of the arrears to the occupiers is indispen sable." These resolutions were unanimously agreed to, and the Tory Lords are now sensible that they have revelled too long in injustice, and that the tithes cannot be saved. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER forestalled Mr. PEASE last night, and proposed to reduce the drawback or bounty now allowed on the exportation of Refined Sugar to the extent of 7s. 2d. per cwt. He admitted, too, that the full extent of the bounty in a case which was carefully in vestigated was 10s. 10d. per cwt. on Reined Sugar, and we see no reason to suppose that the selected 7s. 2d. is nearer the average than the 10s. 10d. On the contrary, we believe, as the object of the Refiner, under the present law, is to leave his sugar as coarse as possible so as to pass muster, that the larger sum is still below the sum taken out of the pockets of the people on all the sugar they consume, for behoof of the Wrest Indians. In the course of the debate Mr. GLADSTONE admitted that this bounty was given to the West Indians, in order to compensate them for the disadvantage of being obliged to take their manufactured articles and lumber wholly from our dominions. We first fleece the West Indians for the advantage of the Canadas, or some other colony, and then we fleece the people here to compensate the West Indians, thus running for ever on the same round of inflicting mutual and reciprocal injury. The public, how ever, is scarcely sensible of the mischief it suffers from this drawback or bounty. By its means the West Indians are enabled to sell their surplus sugar on the Continent, and if it were abolished the price of all the sugar consumed in the empire would fall to the full extent of the bounty. Mr. HumE implied that the reduction proposed by the CHAN CELLOR of the EXCHEQUER Will cause all sugars to be sold at 7s. per cwt. less than at present, benefiting the con sumer to that extent. It is also stated by those conver sant with this subject, that the reduction of the drawback leading to a great reduction of price, will cause the refiners to work more for the home market, and as they can pro duce the best refined sugar at only Id. per lb. more than the riw sugar, they calculate upon a great increased consumption of refined sugar at home, which would more than compensate them for any little loss they may suffer from the bounty being withdrawn. The subject is, however, again to come under the notice of the Legislature, and we shall probably recur to it on Monday. We are glad to see that the Bill for extending Farring_ don-street northwards to Clerkenwell passed the Com mons last night. The improvement effected by this Bill Hill be as great as any that have of late been made in the Metropolis, and Sir MATIIEW WOOD is entitled to great credit for the very active part he has taken in bringing it about. The lrishonf Commons pnlo;;ritr,tattn, o u au g vt l i i nag C n v o t m adki m vein i s t i t op e nl e a, c i e n the or a. The chief poin t o f dis c u ssion was an amendment p ropose d to be introduce d, for th e purpose of protecting the e l ectors ndl c Municipal of the city o f Dublin from th e consequences of negle c t or ty House am e partizanship of the collectors of taxes. It is well known that man y of the Parliamentary electors have been disfranchis e d by these causes. Either the collector has forgot to call, or kept out of the way until the day of payment was past. To secure the voter against a similar Municipal disfranchisement, it was proposed to insert a clause fixing the Bank of Ireland as the locality to which the electors might resort with the amount of their taxes. The clause was opposed on two ~rounds ; first, because being so worded that a sum of Money might be paid into the Bank by any individual, in payment of the taxes of any number of voters, it was consi dered likely to lead to wholesale bribery on the eve of an election. Secondly, because if the principle were good, and that was admitted on both sides oftho House, it ought not to be confined to Dublin, but extended to the other cities an d boroughs. The clause was eventually withdrawn, but w ill probably be brought forward in a less objectionable form at the reporting of the Bill on Monday next, when several other postponed clauses will be taken into con ideration. The Paris . journals of Thursday, the whole of' which we have received, bring no news of any political interest.

LONDON : SATURDAY EVENING, JUNE 16, 1838. Lord BROUGHAM, in the House of Lords last night, after presenting several numerously signed petitions in fa vour of the immediate abolition of negro apprenticeship, in our West Indian Colonies, took occasion to apprise their Lordships that it was not his intention to proceed any further with his Bill upon this subject. Confident, as he felt, that it could not pass the two Houses this Session, even supposing Parliament to sit to the Ist of August, he deemed it better to withdraw it altogether, than to retain it as a stumbling-block in the way of the Irish Poor-law Bill. To console the friends of immediate abolition for this painful frustration of their righteous hopes, the Noble and Learned Lord enumerated the colonies in which slavery would, wholly or partially cease and determined on the Ist of August next ; and pointed out how much more might be effected by the Crown to accomplish this noble work, without the further intervention of the Legislature. Independently of any subsequent Act, either of Parliament o,- the Executive, there would be free, on the Ist of Angus', 1838— Negroes. In Antigua Montserrat 5 or 6,000 Nevis 5 or 6,000 Bermuda Barbadoes 83,000 That is to say the entire slave population of these colonies ; and that too by the voluntary, and therefore most praise worthy, acts of the several local Legislatures. As Barba does was one of the most wealthy and important—with re gard to population, locality, and possession—of our We s t Indian colonies, the Noble and Learned Lord expressed an ardent hope that Jamaica would yet follow the excellent example thus afforded her. There will, however, be free on the Ist of August, even in Jamaica : Non Proadials Children Manumissions about So that without any further interference on the part of Parlia ment or the Crown, there will he two hundred and forty-one thousand Negroes—being more than one-third of the whole slave population of our Colonies—absolutely and uncondition ally freeon the first of August next. This is joyful intelligence, and will go a great way towards alleviating the extreme irri tat. on so very generally felt upon this subject. But Lord BaouGuANI did not stop here. He enumerated the Crown Colonies, in which it was not competent for the Planters to emancipate their slaves without the authority of an Order in Council, although they might themselves be most anxiou s to put an end to such an iniquity. His Lordship's compu tation of the number of slaves in three of the principal Crown Colonies was as follows : Guiana 79,000 Mauritius 62,000 Triuidad 3O or 40,000 To effect the abolition of the apprenticeship system in these Colonies, the Noble and Learned Lord, in withdraw ing his Bill, gave notice that unless an Order iu Council was immediately issued, empowering the planters to liberate their apprentices unconditionally, he would on Monday next move an address to her MAJESTY, praying her gracious adoption of such a measure. We sincerely thank the Noble and Learned Lord for this intimation of the course which he now proposes to pursue. .It will not be lost upon the country. As we can no longer indulge the hope of a Parliamentary triumph this session, it remains for us to try what can be accomplished by a nation's invocation of justice at the hands of the Royal object of that nation's loyalty and love. To the foA of the Throne be henceforth the eyes of the Eman cipationists directed. England's QUEEN must abhor the very idea of ruling over slaves. Her glory and her greatness as a potentate can only consist in swaying the sceptre of a free, enlightened, and happy people. Her MAJESTY will, therefore, promote her own glory and the happiness of her people by striking with her Royal hand the last fetter from the limbs of the African. It is now for the friends of the negro to convey this conviction, em bodied in numerous petitions, to the foot of the throne. Let our gracious QUEEN but know that the immediate emanci pation of the coloured race is absolutely necessary to the con summation of England's true greatness, and we shall have little to fear from the further opposition of the Cabinet. So the Tory Lords arc again desperately frightened by the Irish. Look reader at the conversation in the House of Peers last night, and see how GLENGALL trembles, how scared is Wromow, how FITZGERALD quakes, and Ice even how WELLINGTON is alarmed. Why should they trouble themselves about collections of the Popish r abble, of the alien heretics, of the ignorant priest-led m ob ? They, of course, are mighty in the consciousness of their integrity, and in the righteousness of their cause. They are powerful by the vast power of all the Clergymen of the Protestant part of the empire, and in the right arms of the almost countless hosts, the clergymen can influence to support them against the Papists—and why; then, should these potent Lords feel one nervous agitation because the degraded and despised " surpliced ruffians" have got together a few thousand bog-trotters to denounce the tithe system Yet so it is. The Tory Lords are frightened at the public meetings in Ireland, and plaintively call out, in their alarm, for the Government to declare them illegal, and suppress them. Mighty men such as they are, righteous rulers suc h ns t h ey d ec l are them selves daily V to be, should be well convinced both of the obedience and of the love of all the people for whose welfare they are so anxious to provide ; and s hould see with n o thing but satisfaction the people assembling, and in however large bodies, sure that they would wil lingly do homage to the disinterested virtue of the Tory Lords. Somethinz, very different, however, occurs, The Tory THE lIVNK OF ENGLAND V. BOOTH. The MASTER of the ROLLS gave judgment in this case, which was heard before the Court sometime since, upon a motion for an injunction to restrain :George Pollard, who is the Manager of the London Joint Stock Bank, from accepting bills in his own name or that of the Com pany at any period less than six months. By the decision which was given by his Lordship in the case of the Bank of England .I , nd the London and Westminster Bank, it was declared incompetent to the Manager of any Joint Stock Bank, to accept bills on behalf of the Company of which. he was the Manager at a less date, and the de fendant in the present case, for the purpose of evading that decision, had accepted bills for the Company in his own naine. His Lordship, after recapitulating the facts of the case, which, we gave at the hearing, granted the Injunction. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. (FROM OUR ovvs cortngspoNoENT.)

There has not been any great amount of business done during the past week, as our daily reports have shown. About 1,500 hhda. of British Plantation Sugar sold. Raw Sugar of all kinds may be quoted at 6d. per cwt. lower than it was last week. Refined goods unalterea in value. Coffee has continued at its previous worth, and so have Spices. Tea flat, in face of the approaching sales. Rice firm, and so has been Cotton. The imports have been heavy, the exports light, and the deliveries for consumption very extensive. We have not at present any great amount of business advertised for next week. LIVERPOOL SHARE MARKET, •Joie 15. There was a very languid enquiry for all descriptions of Railway stock to_day, and those mentioned below were the only shares parted with though a reduction was submitted to on most lines :—Grand Junction, '217; Leeds and Manchester, 47 ; Liverpool and Manchester, 20el ; Edinburgh and Glasgow, old, 4i; Bolton and Bury, 70&. LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, JUNE 15. The rain which fell during the past two days has given to the crops in this neighbourhood an improved appearance. We have to report very light supplies of Grain, and also of Flour and Oatmeal from Ireland and Coastwise. There was not much demand for Wheat to.day, but holders of this article were very fitm, and for the small business transacted fully Tuesday's prices were paid: About 500 qrs. of English Barley were purchased at ss. per COlbs. on Scotch account. Oats and Oatmeal being in limited request, had a tendency to recede in value. Flour, on the contrary, though little noticed, remained very steady in value. Malt, Beans, and Peas were neglected, and the turn lower. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, June 15. Our Cotton market of to-day was much brisker than that last re. ported, and the rates generally may be considered steadier. A tolerably large quantity was sold, the entire sales consisting of 4,000 bags, MONEY AND COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY (THIS D.4Y), TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The SPEAKER took the Chair at Twelve o'Clock. Mr. W. S. O'BRIEN presented a petition from the Apothecaries o Dublin against the qualification clauses in the Morical Charities Bill. The HON. MEMBER gave notice that on 1 11inging up the Report on the Municipal Corporation Bill he should move a clausedirecting a valuation to be made by the Poor Law Commissioners during the present year, so that the Bill might come into action dthing the autumn. Mr. CHAPMAN enquired if Government intended to do anything to remedy the frequent accidents which occurred on board steanuessels. Lord JOHN RUSSELL was understpod to say that he was not aware of any such inten'ion. THE VIXEN. Sir S. CANNING said he had given notice that he should ask for some papers relative to the seizure of the Vixen, and he would now pro ceed to sate what they were. The first, was a copy of any legal pro ceedings or sentence of any court of law in Russia, with regard to the rixen. The next, a copy of any application made relative to the Vireo, to the Court of St. Petersburg by his Majesty's Ambassador, or any re monstrance. Would there be any objection to the production of these documents ? Lord PALMERSTON said there would be no objection to their pro. duction if they were in existence. Sir C. CANNING said the next question he should ask was, If there were any dispatches from the Noble Lord to his Majesty's Ambassador between the 27th January, 1836, and the date of the first dispatch In the official printed papers, giving insttuctions to Lord Durham ? There was also in one of the printed papers a reference to a cor respondence by Lord Ponsonby, ns to some regulations which affected the seizure of the Vixen, as given by the Court of St. Petersburg in the year 1831. He wished to knew whether they now existed ? He understood also from Mr. Bell that there was in existence a de. spatch from Mr. Urquhart, the late envoy from the British Collet at Constantinople, dated the 20th September, 1837, which Mr. Beil de scribed as having an immediate bearing upon the merits of the case, lie was authorised to state that Mr. Urquhart had no objection to the pro. duction of that document, and he wished to ask the Noble Lord whether he had any objection to its production, as he considered It of great Inn. portance P Lord PALMERSTON said if he recollected Lright no communica tion had been made to Lord Durham, between January 1536 and *ril 1837, and the first instructions given to Lord Durham were those Ia April 1837, which had already been laid before Parliament. NS - Ith respect to the dispatch announcing the intentions of the Russian Government on the subject, he was not aware that there "vas any objection to lay it upon the table of the House. With regard to the letter of Mr. Urquhart, dated September 1837, it was written after he had ceased to hold an Offi cial situation, and he (Lord Palmerston) regarded it as a private corn munication.—(Hear, hear, hear.) Independently of that objection, it contained most unfounded statements and misrepresentations, and an attack upon his (Lord Paltuereton's) conduct. Under these cireum st.inees he did not conceive himself justified in laying It upon the table. If he did so, he should be obliged to write a long reply to it, ex.. posing its falsities and mistatemente. Sir S :VITORD CANNING begged to ask whether there was auy jection to the production of that portion of the letter which he under. stood referred to the case of the Vixen especially ? Lord PALMERSTON believed that portion of the letter was con nected with a false statement made in the petition, namely that Mr. Bell had stated that he had sent out the Pixels in consequence of the voyage having been encouraged by the Secretary of State, For these reasons he certainly would 11(4 consent to its production, Sir STRATFORD CANNING believed there were some other alle. gations relating to the Vixen in that letter, It was with a view to as certaining the facts of the ease that he had asked for the documents, The circumstance of the dispatch being unofficial certainly entitled the Noble Lord to keep it back if he thought proper, but he really thought there were parts of it that might be made public. Lord PA LMERSTON said that Mr. Urquhart had written a long letter to him, containing a series of mis-statements connected with his meal. Ho had not as yet had Uwe to enter Into a controversy with Mr. Urquhart, and therefore those letters remained wholly unanswered from that time to the present.—(Hear, hear.) Now if this letter were laid on the table, which he had received Prom Mr. Urquhart, lie must write an answer to accompany it. He would, how. ever, read the letter again, and then tell the Right Hon. Gentleman lila view of the case. Sir STRATFORD CANNING'S only desire was to obtain informs. tion. He would, therefore, take au opportunity of bringing the eare4, 3et forward. JUVENILE OFFENDERS. Lord JOHN RUSSELL moved the Order of the Day for the House resolving itself into a Committee on the Juvenile Offevalers' Bill. Mr. GIBSON wished to know whether in the. Cas e of j uvenile offenders, emigration was to be mad e a con di tion 'of pardon. Lord JOHN RUSSELL said, that in terial n cases where they gatild I.a advantageously employed 10 the coloules,_it might be considered ex pedient to grant a pardon. The House then resolved itself Into Committee. On the first clause being put, Mr. ESTCOURT wished to know from the Noble Lord what meaning was to be attached to the words "young offender." Did it Man young in years or in crime ? Lord JOHN RUSSELL did not think that an aged person committing a first crime could be called a young offender. —(A laugh.) Clauses 1 and t; were then passed. On the r6ading of clause 3, Mr. ASHTON YATES moved an amendment, which was not dis tinctly beard in the Gallery, but was understood to be for the limitation of the age, beyond which offenders should not be sent tp this prison. Mr. HA WES thought that this ought to be a prison for Juvenile of fenders solely; but, at the same time, there ought to be a considerable discretion left to the Judge, or the Secretary of State, in fixing the age. Mr. C. LUsHINGTON said, that in an institution with which he was connected great evil was found to be occasioned by allowing lads of 18 years of age to mix with younger boys. He hoped the age would bs fixed at not more than 16. Lord JOHN RUSSELL thought that the age ought to be left to the discretion of the Judge and the Secretary of State. The clause was then agreed to. Clauses 4 and 5 were agreed to, after a few remarks from Mr. If kIVER, Lord J. Russur., and other Hon. Members. After a few words from Mr. Hawes, Mr. I'rymo, and. Mr. Ashton Yates, Clauses 6,7, 8,9, 10, 11, and 1`.2 were agreed to. Clauses 13 end 14, as amended, were agreed to, as was the preamble of the Bill. Mr. JONES trusted, before Mr. Bernal left the Chair, he might be allowed to request of the Noble Lord, that in all cases where her Majes ty's Royal pardon was to be given to offenders, he would require to see the notes of the Judga who tried the delinquent. He was inductil to make the request from a circumstance that occurred in Carmarthen, where two culprits were pardoned through the interposition of two Magistrates who had not been present at the trial, and whose only motive fur in. terference, as he had understood, was that the offenders were freeholders. He understood that the Noble Lord, after reading the notes of the Lear t ned Judge, had expressed his regret at the course he had adopted. Lord JOHN RUSSELL was not aware of the facts alluded to, nor could he be prepared to answer them as he was not aware that ale lion. Gent intended to bring such a grave charge against him. Mr. JONES said the case had been brought under the notice of the Noble Lord, and he had expressed his regret for being so hasty. The House then resumed. VACATION SITTINGS BILL—(QUEEN'S lIENCH.) The ATTORNEY-GENE?tAL moved the second reading of this Bill, which had been brought in by the Noble Lord who preshled in the Court. He trusted the Bill would be read a second time now, without prejudice to its being opposed at a future stage. The object of the Bill was to allow the Court to sit in ISanco (luring the tour weeks it sat at Nisi Prins, and would not at all interfere with the vacation. He be, lieved it would be of much benefit to the public, and it also met with the general approbation of the profesEion. Mr. JERVIS would not then have said one word had it not been for the last statement of the Learned Attorney-General. So fa;. Nun that being the case, he believed that the profession almost uni•eersally disap proved of it—.(A laugh)—and many Learned Memtre• s of that House intended to oppose it at a future time. Tho ATTORNEY-GENERA L said that the till would not interfere with the vacation. It only proposed that there should be sittings %Al Banco during the four weeks of Nisi .?r•isrs, after term. 'I he Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be committed ou Monday. VESTRIRS IN CHURCHES BILL. On the motion of D. NICHOLL, the Vestries in Churches Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be committed on Monday. SODOR AND MAN BISHOPRIC. On the reading of the Order of the Day fur the third reading of the odor and Man Bishopric Bill, Mr. C. LUSHINGTON said that this Bill had been introduced to the House at twelve o'clock at night, and the House had been in a state of confusion, on every occasion since when the Bill was before it. The ec.- elesiastical Commissioners had recommended the union of this Bishopric with Carlisle. The Archbishop of Cant erbury expressed himself favour able to the union, and Lord Melbourne in the House of Lords said that the union was desirable, if only for the sake of relieving tho Bishop tl'om the secular duties in which his situation involved him. Lord JOHN IIUSSELL said that it was true that the Commissioners recommended the union of this bishopric with Carlisle, but great objections were found to exist. There was some difficulty as to disposing of the revenues. It was not deemed just that they should be transferr«l to the see of Carlisle, and a disposition has been manifested to keep up the bishopric of Sodor and Man. At the same time the income of the Bishop hadbeen limited to about :3,0004 and the incomes of the parochial Clergy had been augmented with the remainder or the income. It was tlise provisions that had Induced him (lord J. Russell) to support the Bill. The Church Commissioners also had unaniummly agreed to its enactments, and believing that it would prove equally satisfactory to the sees of Carlisle and of Soder and. Man, h^ hoped the House would suppmt the Bill. Mr. PRYME said a general feeling existed in the island in favou r of the continuance of the bishopric, and one great reason was 'th e nictitation of the smaller livings of the parochial Clergy f rom the Episcopal revenues of the island.—Mear, hear hear.)
